Lyrics Vampire Weekend – Cousins

You found a sweater on the ocean floor
They’re gonna find it if you didn’t close the door
You and the smart ones sit outside of their sight
In a house on a street they wouldn’t park on at night

Dad was a risk-taker
His was a shoe maker
You, greatest hits 2006 little list-maker
Heard codes in the melodies
You heeded the call
You were born with ten fingers and you’re gonna use em all

Interesting colors I discovered myself
If your art life is gritty, you’ll be toasting my health
If an interest in culture should be lining the walls
When your birthright is interest you could just accrue it all

Me and my cousins and you and your cousins
It’s a line that’s always running
Me and my cousins and you and your cousins
I can feel it coming

You could turn your back on the bitter world
You could turn your back on the bitter world
You could turn your back on the bitter world
You could turn your back on the bitter world

Me and my cousins and you and your cousins
It’s a line that’s always running
Me and my cousins and you and your cousins
I can feel it coming

Me and my cousins and you and your cousins
It’s a line that’s always running
Me and my cousins and you and your cousins
I can feel it coming
